The Expression and Activation of the NF-κB Pathway Correlate with Methotrexate Resistance and Cell Proliferation in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common childhood cancer. Although its prognosis continually improves with time, a significant proportion of patients still relapse from the disease because of the leukemia's resistance to therapy. Methotrexate (MTX), a folic-acid antagonist, is a chemotherapy agent commonly used against ALL and as an immune-system suppressant for rheumatoid arthritis that presents multiple and complex mechanisms of action and resistance. Previous studies have shown that MTX modulates the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway, an important family of transcription factors involved in inflammation, immunity, cell survival, and proliferation which are frequently hyperactivated in ALL. Using a gene set enrichment analysis of publicly available gene expression data from 161 newly diagnosed pediatric ALL patients, we found the
